Many thanks to nibleprop for this bottle! Herbal nose with lots of spices. Smooth and very dry. Roasted malts, hints of red fruit. Nice and deep. Spices and caramel, moderate bittered with lots of spices and dark roasted malt on the tongue. Sessionable with hints of red fruity sourness over dar and dry roasted malt. Very interesting but nice and balanced. Dry fruity roasted bitter aftertaste. Great!

Can. Pours dark brown with red hues and an off-white head. Smells caramel, bread, yeast. Has a very cereal taste, touch of coffee in the back, very nutty, just really interesting! A really think that it works very well...it’s so unique but I definitely love it.

Sampled during CBC 2013. Amber brown pour with a small khaki head. Light caramel, dark fruits, and coffee on the aroma. Sweetish flavor with dark fruits, pit fruits, caramel, and coffee. Not bad.

World of Beer, Arlington tap: Pours a dark brown with a beige head. Aroma is toasted, roasted malts, kind of like fresh and warm soft pretzels, coupled with fruitiness, and a nice little bit of hops. Taste is somewhat sweet. A little bit bitter. Quite fruity. Very well balanced.

Appearance: deep ruby pour with a thick, frothy, creamy light tan head that slowly fades, leaving generous lacing. Aroma: rich waves of roasted coffee flow up from a malty caramel-and-raisins base, with some vanilla, chocolate, leather, and cherries. Taste:sweet and sticky up front, with caramel, toffee, molasses, some chocolate and cream, then a roasty, firm coffee tone crests from the back. Finish: the roastiness of the coffee clears and dries the palate perfectly, although some sticky sweetness regains a foothold after the swallow, with a hint of smoke and booze as well . Notes: Love a doppelbock. Love ska (Pietasters in particular). What could possibly go wrong? Nothing with this beer, that’s for sure. Never would have thought of a coffee infused doppel, but after drinking it, it makes all the sense in the world. The doppel base was perfectly executed, and the coffee infusion brought a whole new dimension of flavor and roasty body. Excellent.

22 oz. bottle. A slightly hazy ruby pour with a thick khaki head. Plenty of roasted coffee, caramel, toasted bread, and touches of raisins in the aroma. Medium body. Lots of sweet caramel, graham crackers, brown sugar, and a rich/chewy bready maltiness upfront taste-wise. Some dark chocolate at the end. An earthy finish with lots of bitter roasted coffee. Hints of fennel and raisins throughout. Very tasty!
